In a bold statement on Sunday, U.S. President Donald Trump revealed potential military action in Nigeria to address the mounting violence against Christians. His remarks came while aboard Air Force One, hinting at deployment or air strikes to halt the alarming death toll.

Trump's strong stance followed the recent reclassification of Nigeria by his administration as a 'Country of Particular Concern' for violating religious freedoms. This designation places Nigeria among other contentious nations like China and Russia, drawing significant international attention.

The president's threats illustrate escalating tensions and emphasize U.S. commitment to defending religious rights. As Trump returned to Washington from Florida, his words underscored a no-tolerance approach towards religious persecution in Nigeria.
